22-23 Oct 2024, Bangkok, Thailand – In an inspiring demonstration of youth leadership and commitment to global issues, two students from Khon Kaen Wittayayon School, Kittiphon Yaipool (Peace) M6 and Kittiphak Yaipool (Zen) M5, actively participated in the 4th International Youth Forum on SDGs and Human Rights (IYF 2024) held in Bangkok. Their involvement in this prestigious event is a testament to the effectiveness of the English Program at Khon Kaen Wittayayon School in nurturing knowledgeable global citizens ready to address some of the world’s most pressing challenges.

Cultivating Global Leaders Through Comprehensive Education

Under the guidance of the English Program at Khon Kaen Wittayayon School, which prioritizes global perspectives and comprehensive education, Kittiphon and Kittiphak engaged deeply with international experts and peers. They focused on Sustainable Development Goal 16, advocating for Peace, Justice, and Strong Institutions. The forum provided a critical platform for them to exchange ideas, absorb diverse global viewpoints, and contribute to the Bangkok Youth Declaration, aimed at propelling youth towards the achievement of the SDGs.

Empowerment Through Active Participation

The forum transcended traditional learning, serving as a springboard for real-world applications and initiatives. Participating in workshops and panel discussions about the integration of human rights with sustainable development, the brothers developed essential advocacy and digital empowerment skills. Their enthusiastic involvement illustrates how educational programs like the EP KKW can transform students into dynamic participants in global dialogues.

Gratitude and Looking Forward

We extend our deepest gratitude to the organizers of the International Youth Forum for providing a platform that shapes young global leaders. We are particularly thankful to Dr. Mary Shuttleworth President Youth of Human Rights International and Dr. Datchanamoorthy Ramu, co-founders of the International Youth Forum, as well as the distinguished ambassadors and keynote speakers from various countries who enriched the discussions with their invaluable insights.

Special thanks also to the English Program at Khon Kaen Wittayayon School for their continuous support and dedication to student development. Inspired by their transformative experiences, Kittiphon and Kittiphak are now encouraging their peers to participate in future forums, emphasizing that small actions can lead to significant global changes..

Join us in celebrating the achievements of our young leaders, Kittiphon and Kittiphak, as they continue to make waves both locally and internationally, advocating for a just and sustainable world.
